In this report, Robins argues that the economic dynamics of globalisation have intensified not only the transnational flows of cultural goods, media products and information, but also human transnational migration. New forms of mobility have created new kinds of cultural juxtapositions, encounters and exchanges which have resulted in greater and more complex patterns of diversity within the European cultural space. The challenge is to develop a democratic transnational and transcultural approach to cultural diversity policy in Europe.
